Question

Six friends create a website. the website earns money by selling banner ads. the site has 5 banner ads. it costs $120 a month to operate the website.
a. a banner ad earns $0.005 per click. write a linear equation that represents the monthly income yy (in dollars) for xx clicks. the linear equation y=y= 0.005x−120 represents the monthly income yy (in dollars) for xx clicks.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = 0.005x - y$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total number of banner ads on site = 5

Cost of operating the website = $120 a month

Money earned per click = $0.005

Let x be the total number of clicks on the 5 banner ad.

Money earned =

$\text{Number of clicks}\times 0.005 = 0.005x$

Let y represent the monthly income on the website in dollars.

We have to write a linear equation giving a relation between the monthly income and clicks on the banner ads.

$\text{Monthly income = Money earned by banner add - cost of operating the website}\\y = 0.005x - y$

is the required relation that represent the monthly income(in dollars) and the clicks on banner add
